As I strode along the shore of my infinite thoughts,
A wave was just round the corner, awaiting
Water splashing on my skin,
Inviting my toes to join the profound blue body by my side
All by myself, I stated to feel the cool sensation that it gave.
Do I need to plunge in just to feel its depth?
Should I be aware of drowning so fast?
Or let the waves slowly take me into the other island
That can show me the treasure
That I was looking for all of my life.
A dilemma is now rousing within me
Should I bid myself to grasp the sensation?
Or must I be cautious to avoid the undertow?
But the treasure is more precious
Than any other material things in this world.
Thus, let your waves crash down on me.
